And the best scenario for NYG (in my opinion) played out 1-5.
That was:
Williams
Maye
Daniels
Harrison
Alt
Which leaves NYG with a choice between McCarthy, Nabers and Odunze. They went with Nabers over JJM. Gun to my head I’d go McCarthy myself but that’s probably the best and most realistic way this shakes out.
It depends what the Giants really think of McCarthy
high in the draft when they are so dependent on the QB position. How many games have the Falcons won with Pitts and London on their roster? Yeah, exactly..
All due respect, but these kind of takes are exhausting and lack intelligence. Desmond Ridder and Marcus Mariota are not DJ. It’s not even close. If the QB they want is gone, Nabers is a great pick.
Your comment is idiotic and insulting! How many TD passes did Jones have in 16 games played in 2022? He had 15 TD passes. How many TD passes did Mariotta have in 2022 in 13 games played in 2022? You guessed it, 15 TD Passes.. How about 2021 (Pitts's rookie year).. Daniel Jones had 10 TD passes in 11 games played (he has habit of 1 TD pass less than games played) while the Falcons, with Matt Ryan had 20 TD passes...
So please, explain to me again how Jones is so much better at QB..
Again the NFL disagrees with your assessment/opinion. Marcus Mariota is a journeymen and career backup now at QB. Ridder was benched last year and then traded this offseason. Falcons were never winning anything with those QBs.
So I don’t agree with your initial question… how many games did the Falcons win with London and Pitts?! Not many because of Ridder and Mariota. It was failed experiment and why they went hard after Cousins.
Don't see how Giants could pass on Odunze or Nabers.

Seeing this list, has just convinced me this is the ultimate draft to be trading down in.
Think about it. We are all debating mortgaging our future to move up for JJM or Maye (who doesnt even make this list...)
I get QB is vital. But the biggest problem this team has faced for a decade or so has been the OL. ANd half this list, is OL.
Im a defense first guy. So seeing we can trade down to the as far as the mid to late teens. And grab an OL or the top D in the draft class. I am now 100% in favor of trading down. Someon ewill pay a ransom for one of those WRs if the QB run happens.
Yup. The draft may actually go like that with the Giants having McCarthy and Odunze on the board. If you believe GoDeep, the Giants may even trade down in such a scenario.
I believe he said we would take McCarthy if he was there.
in his blue suit on draft night, ready for DG to pick him like everyone expected. If someone is convinced that Nabers is going to be all-pro, the Chargers might get a strong offer for 5.
This was my summary of that very ugly 2021 Draft, which was such an emotional ride for those who wanted DeVonta Smith!
I can't recall such roller coaster excitement as a Giants fan:
(1) Draft started calmly with the Jax and Jets going QB;
(2) The first oh-oh moment -- San Fran takes Trey Lance, meaning odds just went way up Mac Jones falls out of Top 10, thus one more non-QB taken before us;
(3) The second oh-oh moment (not unexpected) -- Atlanta decides to buttress Matt Ryan with Kyle Pitts rather than find his ultimate replacement, thus one more non-QB taken before us;
(4) The first "Oh, SH**" moment -- Cincy unexpectedly passes on OT Penei Sewell and takes first WR off Board, Ja'Marr Chase;
(5) The third oh-oh moment -- second WR Jaylen Waddle goes to Miami. Several Mocks had this guy middle of Round One;
(6) Things are looking up on the very next pick as Detroit decides against WR and takes OT OT Penei Sewell;
(7) The Carolina pick of CB Jaycee Horn causes all kinds of confusion. They were supposed to take a QB, but does Horn's selection help or hurt the Giants chances of getting DeVonta Smith?
(8) The first real earthquake hits with Denver taking CB Patrick Surtain. Like Carolina, Denver was supposed to go QB. And what is worse, Dallas no longer has a CB of value to select from at #10;
(9) So, now, it's the moment of truth. Our arch enemy Dallas is on the Board and everyone knows they need O-Line and Safety help. Rashawn Slater or Alijah Vera-Tucker? Nope. Trevon Moehrig? Nope. Dallas puts one between the Giants ribs and trades the pick to WR-hungry Philadelphia;
(10) The Dirty Eagles are on the Board and there's nothing Giants fans can do about it. Will they? Won't they? Will they? Won't they? Didn't take long for the ax to fall, and now we get to see DeVonta Smith in green twice a year.
So, how badly did the Giants want DeVonta Smith? I would say real bad! Why? Because no single player stood out for them for the next 9 picks! Thus, their significant trade down to #20 and Kadarius Toney.
I have Nabers as the best WR in this draft ahead of harrison. Nabers
high in the draft when they are so dependent on the QB position. How many games have the Falcons won with Pitts and London on their roster? Yeah, exactly..
All due respect, but these kind of takes are exhausting and lack intelligence. Desmond Ridder and Marcus Mariota are not DJ. It’s not even close. If the QB they want is gone, Nabers is a great pick.
The only post on this thread that lacks intelligence is yours. You can disagree with it, but it is an opinion, not a statement of fact that is correct or incorrect.
A smarter post by you would have reflected that.
Opinion?! Marcus Mariota and Ridder are career backups. Don’t take my word for it. Ridder was traded this off-season for a box of donuts and Mariota is on his 5th team. Those are the facts.
So is Jones...but we paid him 160 million. I guarantee you that we would get next to nothing in a trade for Jones.
I just want to state Dallas Turner is personally my first choice
I’m really really curious what our QB grades are. Even more curious who their favorite is outside of the top 6. Pratt and Travis are the most intriguing for me.
Travis suffered a gruesome leg injury last year. And before that, I really liked his game. But that injury might place him in the same box as Penix with us: we don't need another QB who is a potentially high medical risk.

I believe he said we would take McCarthy if he was there.
Yes, that was his "allowed to divulge" take. I still think this was too many beans to spill, but a trade down with one of Maye/JJM and OTs still left will be hard to pass up. In this scenario, all 3 QB needy teams would not have been able to trade into 5/6 and would still need QB.

Actually DJ isn’t a career backup until he is. At this very moment, the fact is DJ is our starter and being paid as such for several years now and will START games this year no matter what we do in the draft.
Diva behavior doesn’t matter when you’re good. Toney can’t run an nfl route or absorb the nfl complexities. In other words, he fucking sucked here and sucks in KC. Nabers can recite Shakespeare on the sidelines while dry humping the security guard’s leg on Sundays and while some might care, it won’t matter if he’s nuking nfl defenses. Toney can’t do that, so when he dry humps people get the vapors.
but I still am not sure we see Jones even touch the field again even if the Giants punt this year on QB.
There is the neck... the ACL... and the injury clause. But I'm also going to piss people off and say he didn't look right to me in his last presser. That wasn't normal.
Nabers, multiple sources told SNY, is a player the Giants covet. Most around the league expect him to be New York's pick if they can't get a quarterback (more and more unlikely by the day).
They can try to grab someone like Michael Penix Jr. (Washington) or Bo Nix (Oregon) in the second round.

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought that. Something was off.
For a team to draft Nabers after the Kadarius Toney / Deandre Baker experience.
Not remotely the same. Not at all.
talent wise obviously, he seems to clearly be the 2nd best non-qb in draft, but whether the charge got dropped or not it was really bad judgement. a 19 year old without a permit carrying a concealed gun on bourbon street, visible enough police noticed it. judgement wise just as bad as some of the gun charges toney had that were also dropped.
SEC country is a little different than the rest of the country when it comes to being able to protect their star football players so you never quite know if whatever you are hearing about publicly is just the tip of the iceberg.

Unless Drew Lock beats him out. I think it's going to be an open QB competition in training camp.

The injury clause alone is a reason for him not to see the field.

Sitting a QB because of an injury clause is not what I see as the Giants way of doing business. Probably several other NFL teams would do that but that’s not how I view the Giants. So unless DJ loses a competition with a QB, ie Lock or potential new QB, I think DJ starts the season.
right now seems to be what teams actually think of JJM. Until we get clarity on that, everything else is a bit in flux. I do think Nabers will be there at 6 if the Giants want him.

saying the Giants held him out of action long after he felt fully recovered from his neck injury, and that the Giants are ultra-conservative with neck issues as a general rule. Just something I’ve kept in the back of my mind during the Jones saga.

Travis suffered a gruesome leg injury last year. And before that, I really liked his game. But that injury might place him in the same box as Penix with us: we don't need another QB who is a potentially high medical risk.
Is everyone who sustains an injury in college a high injury risk guy? This seems more like being spooked than anything based on experience or science.
saying the Giants held him out of action long after he felt fully recovered from his neck injury, and that the Giants are ultra-conservative with neck issues as a general rule. Just something I’ve kept in the back of my mind during the Jones saga.
The Giants have done weird things with necks in recent years. Ezeudu was put back into a game in 2022 with a neck issue, got hurt again, and was lost for the year. Jones played in the Raiders game last year.
but I still am not sure we see Jones even touch the field again even if the Giants punt this year on QB.
There is the neck... the ACL... and the injury clause. But I'm also going to piss people off and say he didn't look right to me in his last presser. That wasn't normal.
I think there is more going on there.. I agree with you.
And, injured necks tend to remain an issue, I know firsthand. Two stingers tends to portend more stingers too.
agreed.. and as a person with multiple fusions in my neck- not all done at the same time, when you have an issue with one, it5 puts pressure on the others.
That was:
Williams
Maye
Daniels
Harrison
Alt
Which leaves NYG with a choice between McCarthy, Nabers and Odunze. They went with Nabers over JJM. Gun to my head I’d go McCarthy myself but that’s probably the best and most realistic way this shakes out.
It depends what the Giants really think of McCarthy

Agree with this. I think the chances of picking defense in round 1 is significantly close to zero.

There is the neck... the ACL... and the injury clause. But I'm also going to piss people off and say he didn't look right to me in his last presser. That wasn't normal.
The injury clause alone is a reason for him not to see the field.

Picking Nabers would remind me more of picking Barkley in 2018.

Sitting a QB because of an injury clause is not what I see as the Giants way of doing business. Probably several other NFL teams would do that but that’s not how I view the Giants. So unless DJ loses a competition with a QB, ie Lock or potential new QB, I think DJ starts the season.
With Burns and KT already on the roster, wouldn't Turner just be a situational rusher on this team? For the #6 pick?
AND Ojulari

high in the draft when they are so dependent on the QB position. How many games have the Falcons won with Pitts and London on their roster? Yeah, exactly..
All due respect, but these kind of takes are exhausting and lack intelligence. Desmond Ridder and Marcus Mariota are not DJ. It’s not even close. If the QB they want is gone, Nabers is a great pick.
The only post on this thread that lacks intelligence is yours. You can disagree with it, but it is an opinion, not a statement of fact that is correct or incorrect.
A smarter post by you would have reflected that.
Opinion?! Marcus Mariota and Ridder are career backups. Don’t take my word for it. Ridder was traded this off-season for a box of donuts and Mariota is on his 5th team. Those are the facts.
So is Jones...but we paid him 160 million. I guarantee you that we would get next to nothing in a trade for Jones.

If Daniel Jones plays this season something went very wrong with the Giants offseason plans
Like, he knows he won't play and was faking it? Just not looking healthy?

The neck is a non issue at this point.

I've heard otherwise.

& you know this how?
They can try to grab someone like Michael Penix Jr. (Washington) or Bo Nix (Oregon) in the second round.
Penix and Nix won't make it past the the first half of the first round

I’m really really curious what our QB grades are. Even more curious who their favorite is outside of the top 6. Pratt and Travis are the most intriguing for me.
Travis suffered a gruesome leg injury last year. And before that, I really liked his game. But that injury might place him in the same box as Penix with us: we don't need another QB who is a potentially high medical risk.
Is everyone who sustains an injury in college a high injury risk guy? This seems more like being spooked than anything based on experience or science.
The Giants have done weird things with necks in recent years. Ezeudu was put back into a game in 2022 with a neck issue, got hurt again, and was lost for the year. Jones played in the Raiders game last year.

I think there is more going on there.. I agree with you.

For a team to draft Nabers after the Kadarius Toney / Deandre Baker experience.

YES!!!
agreed.. and as a person with multiple fusions in my neck- not all done at the same time, when you have an issue with one, it5 puts pressure on the others.
